Where have all the real metal bands gone?

I feel the genre has pretty much died over the last 10 years or so. Back in the day I used to listen to bands like Korn, Limp Bizkit, Orgy, Nine inch nails, System of a Down and Rammstein. I remember people used to fucking riot during these concerts, kids nowadays don't even know what a mosh pit is. What happened to metal? I blame Nickelback and Creed.

I would also blame limp biscuit and korn, just as bad as creed. Rammstein and NiN not metal bands, so they are absolved of blame.

nu metal is a sub-genre of heavy metal. I agree they do take some of the blame. They succumbed to record companies to collaborate with pop groups. Same thing that is happening to hip-hop and rap.

Kid Rock always was a limp dick pussy posing as some hard ass rock star. He only had one hit single.

My friend, no. Check out Sweden(Opeth) and Norway's (amon amarth) metal scene. Metal is better than ever. Not too many good domestic bands but there are a few(November's doom, nevermore). Italy (novembre), too. There's still good metal. You just have to look for it

Lacuna Coil and in fact Opeth have played ozz fest. That kind of makes some "mainstream" metal cool. I disagree. This was a shit year except for the metal scene. Alot of good music there recently

When male testosterone levels dropped the metal bands died. There new, skinny hipster faux-males can't handle that kind of music.

I personally preferred Slip Knot and Insane Clown posse. Rawed fans alive and they would kill someone who disrespected their band.

Saxon's Sacrifice album was pretty good.

Saxon with Lemmy and Angry Anderson from Rose Tattoo, though it is a few years old.

Usually can't go wrong with Iron Maiden.

I like what I have heard out of the new Anthrax album

can't say there's really any NEW metal that i'm listening too, but at least a few that have been around are still putting stuff out -- six feet under, messhugah, jungle rot, cannibal corpse, decapitated fetus.

Nigger, wigger music has taken over. Rock n roll is dead in my region.
Not one modern rock station around here.

Piss Fountain is a decent metal band out of Herndon. They were big in the early 2000's and when I say big I mean like playing Nations in DC and shit. Last I saw they played Jaxx

Rock is dead, all monkey music these days.
Where I live there isnt one modern rock station anymore. We have about 3 rock stations, one is like a retarded old metal and classic rock mix that only has a range of 20 miles and the station plays shitty rock, then classic rock, shit from far back as 50 yrs so that sucks, then another out of my range. Not one station introducing any new modern rock bands.
I think things are changing though, I think alot are getting tired of horrible anti white, horrible lyrics, of bustin caps and bitches from behind..etc.
Years ago kids tried figuring out real poetry, now they learn that jacking, hoin, pimpin...tappin dat ass, and gang bangin is the way to go, instead of learning poetry
Please feel free to give some great rap poetry

An unfortunate series of hair-bands, then grunge, followed by nu-metal took its toll. But there's still tons of great metal out there. Whether you like death, doom, black, grind, gore, thrash, sludge, stoner. You can find most anything on youtube these days.

METAL used to be a favorite / the go to for people working in metal shops and maybe auto shops.

in the 80's fairfax had many machine shops that made products

now: you'd be lucky to find one if you tried

SHE'S GOING TO LOVE LESSON 1, which anyone in shop class hears maybe first

lesson #1 tie your hair or chop it off. it will get caught in a machine and the injury could EASILY be deadly

all those hippies with hair ties in the 70's 80s' - their's a chance they were shop workers

male hippy hair ties ...

at least in fairfax, most "party'ers" partied ONLY on the weekend and were proud workers (who were threatened they would die of starvation if they didn't have a job btw - good "inspiration")

you can't look in the past and say "oh look they're stylish". some things you have to "be there for"

back then your boss was probably served in Vietnam

they were hard ass: "DO OR DIE" could mean do it or die of starvation. when they said "do or die" they mean it almost completely. they were serious.
